I found my mix just recently and raspberries just help you set it for good. This also means that you have no tension when you sing if your able to do it.
I have to ask... where do you feel the the most resonance when you are in your mix. is it in your chest, neck or head? You see the resonance placement is a great tool to help you stay in the mix. Dyl :)
Step two 3:54, all well and said, but this is not enough information to make me understand what do I have to do in order to to make that nice wiggling of the tongue. If I do those bursts, it's very different result, just air and spit. Could you describe how the mouth should be, should I purse my top lip against tongue, because it seems that in the video, the airflow comes through under the lip, but mine from above. I do have a stiff tongue, probably, and I need to work on that, but that's not the only problem. Thank you.
happy to give you a free Skype lesson so I can show you how to do it and give you a couple of tips on how to use it. :) just let me know :) as you sound like someone that gets what I am teaching :)
you are welcome, jus tgo to my website and reach out form the contact form there :) vocalcoachdylan.com let me know if you have any questions. :)@@ellie.rim30
Thank you so much for this invaluable tip. I’m amazed at how it works immediately. I use lip trills constantly but I’m really liking the raspberry as it seems to relax my tongue, releasing tension and creating a better sound. Love it 😍
@@VocalCoachDylan thank you. The raspberry technique has opened up my voice incredibly this week- I’m so glad I found your channel. Any tips on good breath support would be welcome.
The back of your tongue is pulling back. You might struggle to feel it so take your time. doing the raspberry will help you notice this. alternate between the lip trill then the raspberry over the problem area and you should notice if you are doing the raspberry correctly that its freer over that area. And a B4 getting stuck is often a sign that you didnt release correctly through your register as there should be a feeling of change around G#4 to A4. These are 2 things you can do that will really help. If they don't then the problem could be one of many other things. have a good one :)
Just found your chanel and really love your content and teaching style! I can tongue trill, raspberry ( less well) and still struggle with tongue trill although I can get it intermittently after following along with you. I still want to master the tongue trill along with these. Do you think raspberries and tongue trills help me towards tongue trilling eventually in addition to keep trying to trill? Thank you!
Its a nice side project to work on as doing all the trills (lip and tongue) and the raspberry mean you have a balanced control over your lips, tongue and facial muscles. But remember that they are not singing they just help you learn to feel what a balanced singing voice feels like and they also balance the breathing for you. I would focus more on moving to the NG or vowels with consonants like LAH or MAH. let me know if you have any more questions Dyl :)
nothing you learn on youtube is permanent as that only happens with a good vocal coach that can help you to internalize the correct feeling of singing so you don't fall back into bad habits that often a student doesn't even know they have. This is the best exercise I know of to help guide your voice but you must internalize how it feels in your throat. The forwardness of the sound. The freedom on your jaw. The overall energy that the raspberry creates. and also sing without articulation tension then yes this would be permanent. hope that helps.
Can't do it you have soft fat lips and soft cheeks my skin is tighter and my lips are thin so there nothing loose to flap up and down so I get a tight vibrating sound. Any suggestions
hi yes those are all signs that you have to much tension in your lips. would be a good idea to get a vocal coach to help you recognize the root of the tension and how to release it. sorry I can't be more helpful. But its a complicated one.
@@VocalCoachDylan thank you. I think it is happening, seems like my tongue is rather short, haha, I guess I need to find the comfortable position where I can keep it going comfortably and relaxed?
hi again Dylan. could you make one thing clear please.....when you do the slide exercise do you allow your raspberry 'B' sound to slide up into the head voice or do you keep it connected all the way with a bit of compression. your brill. thank you
Hi dude, keep the same feeling of vocal focus all the way up and allow the resonance to naturally shift up into more of top/back of head resonance as you go higher, while also keeping a bit of the nose resonance too. Rememeber that as you go higher the resonance will get less but can be kept in these same areas (nose and back top of head) right up ot your highest notes. Dyl :)
Hi ya, thanks for getting in touch. I have not heard of that before. Sounds like you are either pushing your tongue forward to much or pulling it back to much. Try to keep your tongue with the tip of your tongue lightly touching the bottom front teeth. hope this helps :)
Hi ya, thanks for your question. This will be some form of facial tension, often in the lips, cheeks or jaw. Try the jaw release exercises I show on this channel. and also use a mirror to help you notice your face tensing up. hope that helps :)
Hi, thanks for getting in touch, allow your larynx to lift more and bring the sound of your voice more to the teeth. This gives a thinner bright sound. you can find this by humming and focusing the buzz at your lips. Dyl :)
this is a great exercise and has helped so much....my only problem is as soon as I go up in pitch my raspberries become faster and then I run out of air......why?....thank you so much for your clarity in explaining things.
Hi Antony, thank you for your comments, The main reason is pushing at the top when you do this you force to much air out. And that happens all because of the way you think differently at the top. notice how calm you are at the bottom, and try to stay that calm at the top while focusing hard on keeping the raspberry rate the same these two things together will give you the biggest change... oh and it's not easy and will need practice. regards Dyl :) PS Oh and I have loads more cool singing videos for my email list if you want to join it (it's free) then just get back to me at this email: dyl@vocalcoachdylan.com.
@@ANTONYTHEDRAWINGMAN I know this sounds strange but that will all happen naturaly if you let it. its the over control that is the problem here. :). The more you let go into high notes the more you will allow your voice to just do what it needs. When I say let go I mean mentally as you are tensing up to much at the top :)
Hi Walter, Sorry at the moment I am totally booked up but if you like I can put you on my waiting list? Also you can get hold of me via this email: dyl [at] vocalcoachdylan.com why not drop me a line and tell me about where you are at with your singing. Have a great day Dyl :)
Hi, thanks for reaching out. I do skype or zoom online singing lessons. Just get in touch here and we can sort something out :) dyl@vocalcoachdylan.com I look forward to hearing from you. Dyl :)
Hi Alex :) I hope you are well my friend :) I am sorry but I am totally booked up and also you're a little young for singing lessons as I come from the school of vocal coaches that feel young voices should not be trained until you've got to around 14 years of age to allow the voice and body to grow naturally. The raspberry that you have learnt on this video will help you keep your voice on track as will doing sirens with it. I have a video on how to do sirens. You can check it out here: th-cam.com/video/JhKiIQBeyp0/w-d-xo.html Dyl :)
Did you notice a difference in your singing after using the Raspberry?
Very clear
Thank you 🙏
you are very welcome :) have a great day :)
can you please create another video on how to do this step by step? I cannot get it to vibrate like that haha
Top man...best warm up ever...range, agility, flexibility, ability etc, etc, etc, you name it.. 🙏 🙏 🙏 8
Very cool
you are welcome :)
Great exercise 🤩

Amazing, but... how to find the "b"-sound without closing the lips? Here I'm struggling.... 🤔

Why do my lip trills get stuck around a B4? I choke myself off even if I focus on keeping my larynx down

I cant able to do rasberry
Yes - big improvement, but is it permanent?

Hi, I can do lip trills, tongue trills easily very relaxed but not raspberries 😢 do you have any idea what’s not working?
try not to hold your tongue so tightly with your lips. also if you can't get it being able to do the lip trill and tongue trill is fine. :)
@@VocalCoachDylan thank you. I think it is happening, seems like my tongue is rather short, haha, I guess I need to find the comfortable position where I can keep it going comfortably and relaxed?
hi again Dylan.

I find that this aggravates my gag reflex. Am I doing this wrong?
Hi ya, thanks for getting in touch. I have not heard of that before. Sounds like you are either pushing your tongue forward to much or pulling it back to much. Try to keep your tongue with the tip of your tongue lightly touching the bottom front teeth. hope this helps :)
I can’t do the lip trill or the raspberry I’m not sure what stoping me
Hi ya, thanks for your question. This will be some form of facial tension, often in the lips, cheeks or jaw. Try the jaw release exercises I show on this channel. and also use a mirror to help you notice your face tensing up. hope that helps :)
❤
only my top lip is flapping. is that wrong? what is supposed to happen?
How to do this
Sir , how to get a light, thin and bright voice which is non-bassy ?
Hi, thanks for getting in touch, allow your larynx to lift more and bring the sound of your voice more to the teeth. This gives a thinner bright sound. you can find this by humming and focusing the buzz at your lips. Dyl :)
@@VocalCoachDylanThank you! And yeah ,, I've watched your video on forward vocal placement ,, but that bright sound doesn't stay for long .
this is a great exercise and has helped so much....my only problem is as soon as I go up in pitch my raspberries become faster and then I run out of air......why?....thank you so much for your clarity in explaining things.
Hi Antony, thank you for your comments, The main reason is pushing at the top when you do this you force to much air out.

@@VocalCoachDylan thanks so much...your the best.
does this mean as I sing higher I bring compression into it to reach the higher notes without straining.
@@ANTONYTHEDRAWINGMAN I know this sounds strange but that will all happen naturaly if you let it. its the over control that is the problem here. :). The more you let go into high notes the more you will allow your voice to just do what it needs. When I say let go I mean mentally as you are tensing up to much at the top :)
@@VocalCoachDylan that makes a lot of sense....thank you so much Dylan...your the best.
Wow I can’t do this. Any tips coach?
